Obama Bumper Sticker Road Rage

[Little Owl]

Had to drive into downtown Boston today.  Anybody whose had this pleasure knows what a royal pain it can be.  As I approached the train station looking for a place to either park (yeah, right) or at least stop to discharge my passenger, I suddenly heard a series of sharp horn blasts from the car behind me.

This was puzzling.  Although Boston drivers are world renowned assholes, at the time I was simply driving down the road (no lane changes, turns, etc.).  I could then hear muffled unintelligible yelling from this driver, who then made a point to drive up parallel to me to continue yelling.  As I kept my window closed, I do not know what he was yelling about.  He held his position next to me (blocking cars behind him) for about 30 seconds before I drove off.

None of us could figure out what this guy's problem was.  We're used to people getting mad because of being impeded, thus driving off at the earliest opportunity.  This dude did nothing until approaching from behind, where our car sports the bumper sticker that reads "1/20/2012 - Obama's Last Day".

Based on his vitriolic behavior, my wife and I think this was our first Obama bumper sticker road rage incident.
